The story of Bojan Zulfikarpasic and Julien Lourau is mainly one of friendship, both personal and musical. Combing the Paris jazz clubs in the late eighties, they would soon find each other in the short-lived but legendary underground band called Trash Corporation, a sort of playground for these young mavericks where they would try out new ways and stretch musical boundaries. With a collaboration and friendship that has lasted for over twenty years, the concert is bound to be marked by their musical empathy. The listener is pulled in immediately and gets a real sense of the time that’s passed between them. There is a strong physicality to their playing; their music can be forceful and explosive, yet they leave lots of room for introspection and humor as well. Energetic, fluid, fierce but not brutal and there’s certainly no meaningless exuberance of notes. This is pure friendship, solid and uncompromising.
